    Remote key entry problem

    Could be an intermittent door request button switch issue. Just worked with a dealer that had the same issue one a brand new Hyundai Genesis. We installed the remote start and they were trying to blame the problem on us. Turned out there was a problem with the request switch on the door not...

    delete rear Mazda symbol

    I'm not 100% sure it is something that could easily be removed. The trim piece surrounding the license plate lights and rear hatch release is one complete piece that goes up behind the Mazda symbol.

    Tuning

    Comparing it to the engine out of the M3, you are missing quite a few variables that allow the engine to preform to those specs. All of the engine internals are designed to be more stout and handle those conditions. Cooling, oiling, timing, the list goes on. IIRC the E46 also revved to around 8k...

    Anti-theft alarm goes off randomly

    Easy way to check is to roll down the driver window and then lock the doors. Give it about 30 seconds to a minute for the factory system to fully arm itself and then reach in and open the door. Make sure the key is not too close to the vehicle. The horn will sound if you have the factory...

    Rear Parking sensors

    Those aren't factory sensors. Looks like the echomaster brand. We install them at work quite a bit. Note they are paintable. We offer it as an option.

    Tuning

    Improving the driving dynamics, drive by wire throttle response, and overall power/torque delivery through a tune . . . sure. Seeing that big of an increase in power in a NA motor with no other modifications . . . too good to be true. Wait for the "my motor blew up" threads to soon follow.

    Erratic Start Problem CX-5 2015

    haven't looked at the brake switch on the mazdas, but on many cars there is some adjustment to where the pin is located. It can be moved in or out a bit to adjust for pedal travel. If that is the case on the CX-5, the pin could be moved out a bit and allow the switch to be activated with less...

    Best aftermarket Remote Start for CX-5

    the evo-all can also control alarm functions. If your car doesn't have a factory alarm, it can add a basic alarm that monitors the door triggers. You can also upgrade it with the optional shock sensor to add more security. If your car has the OEM alarm, the shock sensor can be used to trigger...

    If you have an Aftermarket Remote start/Alarm I've got a question

    You could wire to the hazards, but they would continually flash while the car is remotely started.

    If you have an Aftermarket Remote start/Alarm I've got a question

    Yes ours do. The parking lights are active when the car is remotely started, and will flash with corresponding lock/unlock commands. This is with the switch set to "auto". Not with the switch left in the on position though. There are two parking light wires that need to be wired into at the...

    The CX-5 LED Lighting Thread

    The ones we received have that little flash light end on them similar to to picture. They fit but were very close to the same diameter as the hole opening. I could see if they had some slight changes throughout production that there could be an issue. I also have mixed reviews on the iJDM...

    The CX-5 LED Lighting Thread

    Bought these right after we got the car in summer of 13. Still work great and definitely put out more light than stock bulbs. Help quite a bit with the having all of the windows tinted too. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008G4Y076/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Does anyone had installed a pumpkin Android head-unit?

    Most of these off brand units have a lot of features and sound great on paper, but tend to be junk. I don't have experience with the pumpkin brand, but often times these units are rebranded under numerous names that come and go. It's like they order a large batch from china and once they sell...

    Crave More Power on your 2.0L? It Might be Your Lucky Day

    Nope, it's in the front of the car near the driver side headlight. Probably to offset cost and not weight. (and to save what little bit of trunk space there is)

    Crave More Power on your 2.0L? It Might be Your Lucky Day

    I got it mixed up. In Europe a 1.5 liter and 2.0 liter will be offered where only the 2 liter will be offered here. Also can't agree with the engine disturbing the balance of the car. What is the difference in weight between both engines? The difference between the 1.5 and 2.0 must be...

    Crave More Power on your 2.0L? It Might be Your Lucky Day

    I thought in the US markets that we would only get the Miata with the 2.5L engine? Will they offer both options?

    Shark fin antenna should be soup

    Not sure on the Mazda, but on other cars I've pulled them off (usually to install or replace an antenna) there will be two bolt holes and a larger hole or square cutout to allow plugs to fit through. Could be covered, but you would have to fab something up. Probably a lot of trouble to make it...
